This is where most modding happens. Replacing these files updates how players and teams look.

Modern PES 2013 modding has largely moved away from directly editing .img files. Kitserver (created by Juce & Scythe) allows you to load content externally. You can now: Pes 2013 Img File List
However, the original IMG file list remains the foundation. Every external server emulates the internal structure of these files. Knowing the list helps you debug why a mod isn’t working: “Is my face failing because dt04.img conflicts with my GDB\faces folder?”
It is important to distinguish the loose .img files from cv_0.img. This file is the master container for database information. While the other .img files hold assets (pictures, models, sounds), cv_0.img holds the logic (player stats, team lineups, formations). A comprehensive patch always includes edits to both the asset IMG files and the database file. This is where most modding happens
A young modder, let’s call him Alex, wanted to replace generic faces with real ones. He downloaded tools like AFS Explorer and Cri Packed File Maker, but first — he needed the map.
He opened a dusty forum thread from 2013: “PES 2013 IMG File List – Complete Reference”. There it was: However, the original IMG file list remains the foundation
dt00_e.img – English commentary & main menu strings
dt0c.img – Kits, boots, balls, faces (the holy grail)
dt04.img – Stadium models & turf patterns
dt06.img – Scoreboards, replay logos, ingame popups
dt07.img – Boots & accessory textures
dt09.img – Chants & crowd sounds
dt10.img – Faces & hair (high-res)
dt0f.img – League & cup logos
Each line was a key to a locked room.
